"The rice terraces of Northern Philippines
are known for the meticulous and painstaking
process it took to build them.
When I paint, I adopt the same virtue of
patience in my work. I can only hope the
impact of the rice terraces as a grand cultural
monument would be the same impact
I will make in art through my paintings."
-JEF CABLOG
